Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus attends the Los Angeles premiere for the second season of HBO’s series ‘Veep’

HOLLYWOOD — Love is in the air, both onscreen and off for the cast of “Veep.”

Tuesday night at Paramount Studios, the cast came together for the season two premiere of the HBO comedy, which focuses on Vice President Selina Meyer and her staff as she navigates the politics of the White House.

On screen, Tony Hale, who plays Meyer’s personal aide/stylist, is mixing business with pleasure. He’s over sharing with his live-in girlfriend to the point of media embarrassment.

“My love interest causes tension, and you just don’t know which way things will land,” said Hale. “Gary is in a job right now that he should have left when he was in his 20s but he’s hung on and formed an emotional connection.”

Anna Chlumsky, who plays Meyer’s chief of staff, has begun dating someone in the series.

“She doesn’t take steps back. She’s just dating right now and I don’t think even she knows what to do with it,” said Chlumsky who is several months pregnant with her first child.

Gary Cole, a senior strategist new this season, says anything is possible for his character, but remained tight-lipped on any love interests.

“He’s so aloof in every way,” said Cole, “but there comes a time when he bonds with Matt Walsh’s character (who is the director of communications) and reveals that he likes to sail, so who knows what else he’s doing.” said

Off screen, Reid Scott, who plays Meyer’s deputy director of communications director recently got engaged to his girlfriend and Julia Louis Dreyfus, who plays the Vice President, showed up with her husband in tow.

“We’re trying to pull back the curtain on political behavior and live in the world of in-between moments where Selina’s eyes are half-closed,” said Louis Dreyfus, “I’m interested in that and everything that goes along with it,” including romantic relationships.
